  1. I wonder if they are gonna get any of the other actors from LOTR to come back for the Hobbit? I know Gandalf is practically a shoe-in, since Ian McKellan said he would love to play him again. I'd love to see Ian Holm reprise Bilbo, but he might be a bit too old unfortunately. How about Legolas, Elrond, Gimli? Elves are immortal, so it would make sense for Legolas to be alive, and if I am not mistaken, Elrond WAS in the 70s cartoon version of Hobbit, so I'd love to see Hugo Weaving come back to reprise the role. I imagine dwarves live a long time, so Gimli COULD come back, or if not, then I know Balin (Gimli's cousin) was in the 70s Hobbit, so we could technically get John Rhys-Davies to play a dwarf again--if not Gimli, then he could play Balin (just with slightly different make up but keeping the "family resemblance"). Also the Hobbit takes place 60 years before LOTR (according to the caption in the beginning of Fellowship Of The Ring), and in the Special Edition Extended LOTR DVD, Aragorn mentions he is 87 years old, which would make him 27 at the time of Hobbit, so maybe Aragorn could be in this movie as well. I know a lot of this is definitely wishful thinking on my part, but I think if we could incorporate as much of the LOTR cast as possible, it would really help to make the Peter Jackson retelling of the Hobbit a great movie! On a side note, I do have my suspicions on Guillermo del Toro directing the Hobbit, but then again, perhaps if he and Peter Jackson collaborate together on it similar to how George Lucas and Steven Spielberg collaborated for the Indiana Jones movies, then there's hope yet.
  2. Japanese TV has some of the funniest shit! Human Tetris:
  3. Finally, an honest song: Hosted by Funny Videos Funny Jokes
  4. A cool pic from the set of the new Star Trek movie:
  5. That would be SO AWESOME! I thought Tron was one of those movies that was way ahead of its time, and that's probably it wasn't as appreciated. The SFX were awesome considering the movie was made back in 1982. Imagine doing the same type of movie but now with CG. I am salivating just thinking of the results!
  6. The way older movies are making a comeback with newer sequels, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of a Robocop 4 coming out sometime soon. Of course with the new tradition, they won't call it Robocop 4, they will call it something like "Robocop: Instrument of Justice" or something (like they called Rocky 6 "Rocky Balboa" and Die Hard 4 "Live Free or Die Hard).
  7. Don't get your hopes up on this one. Looked it up on imdb.com and it looks as if it's not gonna be in the theaters, but going straight to DVD. This movie would probably have more promise if they just gotten Paul Verhoeven back on the director's chair. Maybe if he had done the same for Basic Instinct 2 then the movie might've been SLIGHTLY better (even Paul could've only done so much with a 48-yr old Sharon Stone).
  8. Holy crap is it pouring like no tomorrow this morning!
  9. Just FYI, I started up the Crap Shack Trivia Challenge again, in case anyone wants to participate. Nick suggested I mention it on here and I might get more participants, so if interested, stop by the Crap Shack. Will post the next round questions soon.
  10. Early footage of comedian Dan Whitney. Look familiar??? Look closer, you will see that's no other than Larry The Cable Guy BEFORE he "turned" redneck. Pay attention to some of the jokes, they are very familiar as he uses them later on as Larry (like the "going fishing and caught a Cuban" bit, and the "met a girl with a beauty mark, was kissing her and it was a tick" for example).
  11. Sounds like a ripoff of The Irate Gamer, even the same game! Of course maybe the Irate Gamer ripped off him, so who knows...
  12. Woman ruins her marriage on game show: Hosted by Funny Videos Funny Jokes All I could say was "OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
  13. For Archangel (and possibly StillBored as well): MadTV House spoof:
  14. I think all of the surviving Original-series cast members should be in this movie, even if for a quick cameo scene at the end of the movie or something.
  15. You're talking about the Star Trek: Original Series episode "The Naked Time", in which the crew gets infected by some kind of virus that makes them all drunk and lose their inhibitions. This is the episode where Sulu is seen waving a sword.
  16. Or probably issues with post-production. Usually happens when things don't go as planned and they have to push back the release date.
  17. What happened to Christmas '08? They having problems already?
  18. I like achievements in games, but they don't necessarily have to be limited to high scores only. Completing an impossible side quest in a Final Fantasy game is sure something to be proud of! Take for example, defeating Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon in FF7, with their ONE MILLION HPs!!! Took forever, but I done it! Also trying to breed a Gold Chocobo in that game is no easy task, I can tell you that! Sure all it will get me is bragging right, but it sure does rock!
  19. I'm surprised no one mentioned the MILF-ness herself: Jennifer Coolidge (aka Stiffler's Mom). For 45, I sure would like some of that!
  20. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Tifa!!! :love: http://youporn.com/watch/11205 (Warning: NSFW!!!!!)
  21. Wouldn't mind having either one of these ladies (or both)
  22. Looks like it will be very interesting... can't wait until it comes out! I am a bit sad they didn't do at least one more TNG movie. I was really hoping to see Riker's ship, the USS Titan, on the big screen at least once. At least they have the Star Trek: Titan novels (which are a great read), so it's not a total loss.
